A definite favourite for me to add to my coming of female rage shelf.
A story told with alternating points of view between Lottie a fit, smart freshman on a hockey scholarship the phrase sunshiny as fuck could be used to described her, she is determined to find out what really happened to a girl called Janie who died 10 years earlier at the college (did I mention Lottie is a bit of a true crime fan) and is inhabited by the spirit of a rightfully pissed off angry nun. The other point of view is the beautiful, gothic and fiercely scholarly Alice who to manage the all too believable rage that besets any woman in our hegemonic masculinity culture she stumbles upon a sinister soul-splitting ritual hidden in Carvell’s haunted library, which can manage it, at the cost of a Jekyll/hyde type split. I also loved the slow, caring affection that develops between these two. I definitely want to read more of
Warning there is an immortal cat that during one of these Jekyll/hyde rages is strangled by our protagonist but does return a few days latter.
